Answer:
The given blank can be filled with operator.
Explanation:
The proteins that assist in turning on or turning off the function of a specific gene by getting combined with certain sections of the DNA are known as transcription factors. The transcription factors that activate the transcription of a specific gene are known as activators, while that prevents transcription and is termed as repressors.
A repressor can be an RNA or a DNA binding protein, which prevents the articulation of genes by getting combined with the operator. A repressor, which binds with DNA prevents RNA polymerase from getting combined with the promoter, which further inhibits the transcription of the genes into mRNA.
Answer:
The correct answer is D. maintain membrane fluidity through its disruption of fatty acid packing.
Explanation:
<u>Cholesterol</u> is a steroid lipid and is a constituent of biological membranes. It regulates the <em>fluidity</em> of the membrane (so, option C is not correct). Since cell membranes are composed of another type of lipids, the phospholipids, which form a bilayer, cholesterol distributes between the phospholipid tails and avoids these molecules pack each other forming rigid clusters. Thus, the option which better explains the effect is <em>D. maintain membrane fluidity through its disruption of fatty acid packing.</em>
A team of scientists has consistently gotten the same unexpected results from a set of experiments. Then "Peer review of the scientific methods and data analysis" may helps the scientists to ensure the reliability of the results.
<u>Answer:</u> Option D
<u>Explanation:</u>
The roots of achieving unexpected results lie or depend on scientific methods used and analysis of data performed for acquiring results. Therefore when experiment results into unexpected readings researcher need to give a review of entire method and analysis.
Although rest other points like publication of results, discussing with friends and family members or removal of inconsistent data may or may not help depends upon conditions but reviewing helps as observed in many cases , because one must have performed unintentionally or intentionally an error while going through methods.
